Fire at abandoned elementary school in Northeast

KANSAS CITY, Missouri — The Kansas City Fire Department spent Friday morning battling a blaze in the Northeast.

According to various media reports, a nearby fire crew saw smoke coming from the area of the former Manchester School, 6839 E. Truman Road. When firefighters arrived, they saw flames on the roof and immediately began to put it out.

Kansas City Public Schools officials said they sold the Manchester School back in 2009. This isn’t the first time the KCFD have been called to the shuttered school. In 2011, KCFD fire investigators ruled arson as the cause of a fire that resulted in $250,000 in damages to the building.

The Northeast News will provide more information as it becomes available.
